Dr. Berkeley Antonioli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PhD, LCSW, LCSW-C, MEd
The majority of my training and clinical work has been focused on helping adults recover from early traumatic experiences. Often, the traumas my clients are working through is rooted in early relational and/or sexual experiences that leave a lasting impact on their formative developmental years and beyond. I have found that these early experiences often impact how clients have learned to operate and survive in relationships. Many have learned to be hypervigilant and highly attuned to the needs, emotions and experiences of others in order to survive. They may also feel their feelings deeply, and struggle with others who experience them as "too sensitive."

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a highly sensitive person myself, I understand how sensitivity can feel both overwhelming and deeply valuable. I use IFS, mindfulness, and somatic approaches to help clients manage overstimulation and shame while highlighting the strengths of empathy and awareness. Narrative and existential therapies further support meaning-making. My diagnostic training ensures accurate distinction between sensitivity, trauma, and neurodivergence, while I also use a sensory diet approach to help with regulation and self care.

Louisa Lombard
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPCC, PPS
Being a Highly Sensitive Person comes with great gifts as well as some unique challenges. Researchers estimate that 20-30% of people (and many animal species) are more sensitively-wired. In fact, it's estimated that over 40% of people who reach out for therapy are highly sensitive. I specialize in working with HSPs and have for a number of years. Learning about Dr. Elaine Aron's research around HSPs was transformative for me personally and professionally. I find that HSP clients as well as parents raising HSP kids benefit from HSP-knowledgeable and -supportive therapy, using a gentle approach that identifies and validates the gifts and provides strategies for navigating the tricky parts (prone to overstimulation in overwhelming environments, people-pleasing, perfectionism, boundaries, difficulty with conflict, among others). HSPs are deep feelers, deep processors, have immense empathy for others, and naturally notice all the details of people and the places they are in.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
From one highly sensitive person to another, it can be a crazy world out there. Two things that I've found helpful:
1st, resiliency training: Although our bodies can react to things that other people might brush off, Somatic Experiencing can help build up our ability to settle our stress and activation levels. That party might still be uncomfortably loud, but it's more tolerable when you have confidence that you can quickly find comfort again once you leave.
2nd: Boundary training and asking for what you want: As we get better at knowing what would help us feel more comfortable, and better at asking for it, we can start to re-shape our environment to feel better. Then as we feel better, and as our loved ones know how to help us, we are more resourceful, more able to connect with others, and more able to be the people we want to be in the world.

Soma Aloia, SoulWork Somatics & Somatic Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCST, HES
Highly sensitive people often experience the world with remarkable depth while also becoming more vulnerable to emotional overwhelm. Therapy helps you understand your sensitivity, strengthen regulation, and transform sensitivity into one of your greatest strengths.
I specialize in helping thoughtful, sensitive adults whose symptoms don't fit neatly into one category. Anxiety, chronic inflammation, complex trauma, nervous system dysregulation, relationship patterns, burnout, and feeling disconnected from yourself often share deeper physiological and early developmental roots.
Sensitivity is not a weakness to overcome. When understood and supported, it can become a source of insight, creativity, compassion, and resilience. Together we'll help you thrive without feeling overwhelmed by the world around you.

Couples Counseling Center
Counselor/Therapist, Ph.D., LPC
When you and your spouse walk into a room, do you each pick up on dramatically different amounts of information? If one of you is highly sensitive, it may feel like you're living in fundamentally different worlds. I help couples bridge that gap so these differences in perception become a strength, not something that makes you feeling misunderstood, overwhelmed, or disconnected.

Together, we explore thought patterns and behaviors while honoring your depth of feeling, intuition, and nervous system needs. The work is collaborative, paced carefully, and focused on building practical tools without minimizing emotional intensity.

Dr. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
Do you turn down lights, pick clothes by how they feel, have trouble staying places with strong smells, or wish you could turn down the volume everywhere you go? Does it seem like you feel every emotion more quickly and intensely than others? Do you know what others around you are feeling before they even seem to know themselves? It is exhausting to feel like every sensation and every emotion is raw and open, and can make navigating relationships and boundaries challenging. With understanding and compassion we can work together to help you understand your sensitivity, manage overwhelm, and build confidence while honoring your unique strengths and needs.

Jason Holland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
If you are highly sensitive, you may feel things deeply and get overwhelmed more easily by conflict, noise, or constant demands. We can treat sensitivity as a temperament, not a flaw, and work on practical ways to manage overstimulation. This often includes boundaries, nervous system regulation, and improving how you navigate relationships and stress so you can feel steadier without having to shut down who you are.

Baltimore residents face significant mental health challenges tied to the city's high rates of violence, poverty, and opioid addiction, driving strong demand for trauma-informed and addiction-focused therapists. The city is home to Johns Hopkins Hospital and the University of Maryland Medical Center, and many residents seek private therapy to complement or navigate care through these large institutions. Therapists in Baltimore frequently work with PTSD, grief, and community-level trauma across the city's diverse and deeply rooted neighborhoods. The proximity to Washington, D.C. also means many therapists serve commuters managing the particular stresses of a political and federal work environment.
